Short answer, “yes,” and I always normalize to my baseline way of viewing the world, or else in some way habituate such that the trick stops feeling novel enough to feel valuable even if it’s still providing value.
It’s difficult/impossible to tell in retrospect whether I have given up on some new perspective or framing or worldview because it didn’t work, or whether it did work and I got used to it and stopped noticing it. This is a source of continuing frustration.
Very interesting, I default to the same behavior. I notice it working best when I ‘play in game mode’ in bar situations and other highly social events where high risk/reward behavior has multiple advantages.
Other than that I seem to default about 70% of the time to a non game mode way of thinking.
What are the primary other perspective/framings you have found to be beneficial?
